Burberry puts new Leeds factory on pause. Burberry has put the brakes on plans for a new factory in Leeds, as it considers the impact of the UK’s decision to exit the EU, according to the luxury brand’s chairman.

Speaking at Burberry’s annual shareholder meeting in Park Lane, London, John Peace said the company was reviewing the delivery time for the designs of its planned £50m manufacturing and weaving facility, as it looked at the “economic consequences of what has happened”.
The hands behind the heritage: inside the Burberry factory in Yorkshire. Using swift, sure strokes, Amanda’s strong fingers, one tipped with a thimble, push a needle through tough gaberdine fabric.

After more than 20 years in Burberry’s factory in Castleford, Yorkshire, she can stitch a collar in eight minutes – and so neatly the eventual owner of the trenchcoat she is making will never notice her work. At most, the wearer may be vaguely aware that their coat snugly hugs their neck in a way a standard high-street raincoat never could. On the bright, white walls of the starkly lit room, Cara Delevigne and Eddie Redmayne pose in black and white posters that typify the glamorous image of the British brand. But it is the women toiling on the sewing machines, in jeans, loud T-shirts and gold jewellery who are the real force behind the brand’s famous coat.

They stitch 5,000 of the brand’s heritage trenchcoats a week, each garment selling for more than £1,100.
Facebook for artists: 20 ways to get more fans. Have you been struggling to find an audience for your art on Facebook?

Today I’m going to show you how to start attracting fans, get more ‘likes’ on your artist Facebook page and leverage the people you’ve already engaged with to build an audience by creating great, share-worthy posts. I’ll also get into some tricks for advanced targeting to make sure you’re attracting people who will actually be interested in your art and are more likely to convert into eventual buyers (the first rule of using Facebook for artists is that other visual artists aren’t usually the people who will purchase your work). How your artist Facebook page works On Facebook, before you can begin interacting with and engaging potential buyers, you need them to ‘like’ your page. The more people who ‘like’ your page, the more potential you have to get your artwork out there and sold. Turn your friends into fans 1, Share your Facebook fan page 2, Message your friends on Facebook.

My alarm goes off at 6.00AM, when I jump out of bed and into the shower. Once I’m through the reception area and into the big open plan building (once a bus station, very handy for parking), I check my e-mails with a latte and reply to any urgent ones. On Mondays we have trade meetings where we analyse our previous weeks sales – so I prep for this and attend. After our sales (trade) meeting with management, my team and I have a go through to discuss the week ahead, including points of sale, diaries for the week and any other business.

I can’t work if things around me are messy, disorganised, and become chaotic. Even the things I pin to my boards are pinned properly, and in some order. I grew up in Belgrade, and apparently even when I was a little girl I was very tidy.
